A heavy, obliqued slab serif with broad proportions and a compact, punchy footprint. Strokes are thick with noticeable (but not delicate) contrast, and the slab serifs are prominent and mostly bracketed, giving corners a softened, carved feel rather than a purely geometric one. Curves are full and slightly squarish in places, with counters kept fairly open for the weight; overall spacing reads sturdy and headline-oriented, with a lively, slightly irregular rhythm across glyphs that adds energy.
Best suited for display settings where strong presence is needed: headlines, posters, event graphics, and bold packaging. It can also work for sports or varsity-adjacent branding and attention-grabbing signage, particularly at larger sizes where the slab details and contrast read clearly.
The tone is bold and energetic, leaning toward a vintage display voice that feels athletic and promotional. Its slanted, chunky forms project momentum and confidence, while the rounded, bracketed slabs keep it friendly rather than severe.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a fast, forward-leaning stance—combining sturdy slab serifs with a slightly vintage, promotional flavor. Its wide, heavy silhouettes and bracketed terminals suggest a goal of being both assertive and approachable in headline-driven applications.
Uppercase forms appear especially solid and stable, while lowercase and numerals maintain the same muscular color with a consistent rightward slant. The design favors impact over refinement, with strong silhouettes and a robust texture that holds up well in short bursts.
